What is Securitize and what does Brett Redfearn do there?

Securitize tokenizes real-world assets like funds and bonds; Redfearn as president drives growth, compliance, and partnerships with BlackRock.

Is tokenization the future of finance?

Maybe for niches like private markets, but full mainstream? Needs better regs and tech—watch for SEC nods.

Will Securitize dominate US tokenization?
